I don know…I am sure these Math Conferences can get CRAY-ZEEEE! With all of the adding and subtracting…and dividing. It can get out of hand pretty fast!

The worst thing about every International Mathematics Conference I attended, many years ago, was the stench of smelly feet when most of the conferees took their shoes off as soon as a discussion required adding or subtracting numbers greater than ten...

I doubt things have changed nowadays...
